A week has passed by since that day he spent with Callie. The past seven days have consisted of dates with Lou, awkward encounters with Callie and writing music. He feels like Callie's avoiding him but he doesn't know why. Brandon wanted to ask her this morning but he couldn't get her alone long enough to try. He's gonna try again tonight. The moms have gone away for the night, dropping Jude off at Connor's, Mariana at some girl from the dance team's house for a sleepover and Jesus is at some weekend wrestling camp.

"Brandon!" He hears Callie scream, his heart is beating hard in his chest as he runs to her, terrified that something might have happened to her.

When he gets to her he sees a very pissed off looking Callie and she is not one to be messed with. "What's wrong?"

"Your girlfriend." She spits out venomously, as if the words rolling off her tongue were acidic.

He feels a pang in his chest but ignores it. "What about her?"

Callie scoffs, "Go answer the door genius."

Brandon does as she says and opens the door. Before he even opens his mouth to speak, Lou flings her arms around his neck leaning towards him with the intention of kissing him but he pulls back. "Aren't you happy to see me?" She slurs slightly.

He sighs, she's drunk and he knows he can't let her go home like this but he doesn't really think that her spending the night is the best idea. "Of course I am, babe."

She stumbles into the house met with a disapproving look from Callie which is maybe what causes Lou to blurt out a question, "Why don't you love me, Brandon?"

Brandon freezes on the spot, Callie's looking at him intently and Lou is looking up at him. "I do love you." He insists. Brandon doesn't miss the look of hurt on Callie's face, pain that he's caused.

Lou nods, "Yeah. Yeah, you do." She frowns before looking back at him again, "But you're not in love with me."

He knows she's right and he feels guilty, maybe this is the reason she got herself into this state in the first place. Brandon doesn't speak. He doesn't know what he can say to make this better. Lou quickly turns her attention to Callie, "How'd you do it?" She slurs, genuinely curious.

Callie frowns in confusion. "Excuse me?" She asks.

"Get Brandon to fall in love with you. How'd you do it? You done a real number on him, he's still pining for you whilst he's got a fucking girlfriend."

Callie opens her mouth to speak, she feels guilty, for hurting her. She's innocent, she's done no wrong and she's ruining her relationship with Brandon and what's worse is she couldn't help the satisfaction she felt when Lou said he was pining for her because she's been pining for him just as much. This girl is in love with the same guy she's in love with and you'd think she'd hate Lou but she doesn't, she feels bad for her because she knows what it's like to be in love with Brandon Foster but unlike Lou, she knows how it feels to have Brandon be in love with her.

Brandon grabs Lou's arm gently, drawing her attention back to him. "That's enough." He says softly. "You need to sleep this off, I'll take you to the guest room."

Lou pulls herself away from Brandon, shaking her head fiercely. "I know the way. It's not my first time, remember?"

Brandon says nothing as she walks away up the stairs, he's left alone with Callie and he's not sure if he should wait for her to speak first or if he should just say something. They're so close but at the time so far from each other. He wants to reach out and pull her in a tight embrace and never let go, just let it be him and her forever and ever but he can't, not now, not tomorrow but someday. Someday.

"What did she mean?" Callie asks, her voice quiet as if she was afraid to ask the question or afraid of knowing the answer.

"Huh?" He mumbles, trying to play dumb so he can avoid this conversation but Callie sees right through him. She knows him, knows him all too well and she knows that he knows exactly what she's talking about.

Callie gives him a look, like she was pleading for an answer from him with just her eyes and he concedes defeat. He sighs, "The pining for you thing, right?"

She merely nods and says nothing.

He runs a hand through his hair nervously and gives her a shy smile. "Of course I pine for you, Callie. I was just hoping she didn't notice, I was a fool to think she wouldn't. God, Cals... Of course I pine for you. I long for the day when I can call the woman that I love my girlfriend. I long for the day when I can wake up next to the one that I love and tell her how beautiful she is, I long for the day when we can be together again, I pine for you. I pine for someday. Someday, Callie. Fucking someday."

She feels the tears forming in her eyes but blinks quickly in an attempt to hold them back, she doesn't know what she can say to him without letting on that she has too many feelings for him still, that she wants someday to be someday soon. Callie wants so badly for him to reach out and hold her close to him but she knows he's too wary, too afraid of doing something wrong, of being too forward and so she closes the space between them herself. She finds herself wanting to grab him and kiss him, she's run out of strength, all signs of willpower are gone, rational thinking has been thrown out of the window. He looks surprised but he quickly reciprocates her kiss, she can feel him smiling against her and it feels as great as it always had. Being with Brandon, kissing him, tasting him, loving him. It's a hot, passionate kiss spurred on by the months of longing they've both been dealing with whilst they've been apart, pining for one another.

When they finally part Brandon can't help the big grin on his face, despite the fact his girlfriend is sleeping in the guest room upstairs or maybe even in his room. This is what he's been dreaming of for months. "Woah."

"Oh god, Brandon, oh god."

"I know!" He exclaims, the excitement in his voice like that of a giddy child on Christmas morning.

Callie shakes her head fiercely, any signs of happiness now long gone from her face, "No. This isn't okay, Brandon. Your girlfriend is upstairs sleeping and I just made you cheat on her! This can't happen again, okay? It can't. I won't be that girl."

"What do you want me to say Callie? Do you want me to carry on living this fucking lie? I can't do it, I can't do it anymore. Fuck, Callie, I don't wanna hurt Lou either but she's not you. I'm not in love with her... I never will be."

"Brandon-" Callie says before she's quickly closes her mouth. There's a noise and they both know what it is. They whip their heads around and see Lou standing at the bottom of the stairs.

"Oh, shit." Brandon thought to himself. Little did he know Callie was thinking the exact same thing.
